Arzamas Machinery Plant and Gorky Automobile Plant

Photo report about my trip to Arzamas Machinery Plant. Actually the main reason of the trip was to cover the visit of Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Dmitry Rogozin, but I tried to concentrate on the factory and vehicles. I know, that's what you like.
Arzamas Machinery Plant, the part of the "Military-Industrial Company", is one of the leading companies in Russia for the production of wheeled armored vehicles and a leading machine-building enterprise of Nizhniy Novgorod region. AMZ was established in 1972 as Arzamas automotive parts. In 1980 AMZ produced the first military armored personnel carrier, and in 1981 it started the serial production of special vehicles.
